Good Morning, I have put the following entry in my /etc/fstab file
/dev/hda1 /home/charlie/mydocs vfat auto 0 0
The desired result is to mount hda1, which is the c drive on my dual =
boot system, so that I can read, write and execte items on that drive. =
The acutal result is that I can read from the drive and I can even run a =
couple of windows programs that I need, using code weaver version of =
wine, but I can't write to the drive hda1. This is important for 2 =
reasons:
1. I have to share the files created (primarily under Star office, but =
also some graphics) with windows users on the network.
2. The only printer I have is a canon multipass C3000 whch I can't get =
to rn under linux (Suse 7.2)
A side issue is that I plan on using this comuter as a samba server. If =
I do that and then access my home directory from another computer and I =
have the windows directory mounted under my home directory, will I then =
be able to access files on the windows directory?
Thanks,
Charlie
PS so far Suse 7.2 has been the user friendlyest distro that I have used =
as a desktop system.=20
